COCOONDir. Ron Howard (USA, 1985) 117 mins

A group of Anterean aliens return to earth to take back some cocoons of their people they left behind from an earlier trip. The cocoons are resting at the bottom of the ocean. They kept the recovered cocoons in the swimming pool of a house they rented in a small Florida town. Their mission is hampered by three simple, aging senior citizens who like to swim in the unguarded swimming pool, which is also next door to the old age home they live in. One day when they go swimming, they feel energized and "ready to take on the world!" When they find out it is because the pool was recently bought by four alien Antereans incognito as humans, the old folks offer to help the Antereans return the cocoons back to Antarea. As a reward, they offer something magnificent.
